Today, Jason is sharing something different and special. His wife, Jennifer Miller, has a new podcast — a true-crime story about mistaken identity, impossible choices, and one man who goes to prison for his twin brother's crime. It's called Blood Will Tell. Here, you'll find the first episode. You can find the rest by subscribing to Blood Will Tell wherever you listen to Help Wanted

Here's a throwback to before Nicole was a mom! How do you talk to your kids about work—without making them think their worth depends on it? In this episode, Jason and Nicole tackle one of the trickiest balancing acts of modern parenting: explaining your career in a way that’s honest but not overwhelming, inspiring but not pressure-packed. They explore how to navigate your child's questions about what you do, how to help them dream big in a world where industries are constantly evolving, and how to set boundaries around work without making them feel like they’re second place. If you’ve ever felt the guilt of closing your laptop after bedtime—or struggled to explain why “Zoom” isn’t a game—this one’s for you.

Jason reaches into the mailbag and selects two questions. One from someone about just starting out, one from someone figuring out what comes next.

When the check comes at the end of a business dinner, who should pay? The bigger company? Does that even matter? These are the questions on our Executive Producer Morgan's mind after an awkward fumble at the end of a business dinner with a big tab. Jason gives a framework you can use to assess when you should throw your card down, and what to say if you can't.

When we want someone to trust us, the instinct is to present ourselves as the perfect fit. But what if that's actually the thing that's making people skeptical? Jason shares the time-tested but counterintuitive tactic he uses in his own business.

The boom of online courses, coaching and consulting has opened up a new revenue stream for anyone with a teachable skill. This is all fun and games, until you get to the little detail of pricing. How do you set a price on… yourself? That’s the question that made listener Kelsey call the Help Line. To give her the cheat code on pricing strategy, Nicole and Jason phone a friend who knows the course landscape inside and out: Matt Gartland, CEO at Smart Passive Income Media.

You’re ready to move on from something— but you’re struggling to leave.

You keep asking yourself, “Is this worth staying for?”

Today, Jason will help you answer that question. And he starts with his own version of this problem. Are you ready to meet Drunk Party Jason?

Do you have a sneaking suspicion your coworker is mad at you? At best, this feeling can darken your day. At worst, this feeling can turn your workplace into a toxic environment. Jason and Nicole tell you how to handle this hunch, using a very personal example: a time Nicole thought Jason hated her!

Someone upset you and you wanna respond immediately. But Jason's learned that your short-term impulses rarely serve your long-term needs. Today he shares a framework that's helped him navigate moments of stress more effectively and shows you why the most satisfying response is rarely the smartest one.

What happens when you hire someone, and they charge way more than you expected? That happened to our caller, Kassi Underwood, whose babysitter handed her a steep bill. (So steep, a screenshot of it went viral on LinkedIn!) Jason and Nicole give advice on how to course-correct, and how to prevent making this big mistake in the first place.
